Is your electrical problem an emergency situation?

Should you wait? Or should you call right away? Here's how to tell:

Your home is the only one on your street without power = emergency

When many houses lose power, the issue is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the utility company to work on, and there's not much we can do about it.

But when you're the only one without power, that's a sign something's gone wrong on your end. If you turn the breakers and verified that you paid your electrical expense this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You have got a problem just a skilled electrical contractor can resolve.

You smell something burning, or you see brown marks on your outlets = emergency

Never a good sign. Disconnect whatever attached to that outlet. Flip the breaker to switch off power to the outlet and call us right away.

Older outlets are specifically vulnerable to ending up being fire threats. Loose screws, loose wiring, rust, and used metal all can cause heat buildup. At the very least, the outlet requires to be replaced. Likewise, you'll desire us to figure out whether there are other issues in your system that might trigger similar dangers.

Sometimes you'll see the outlet stimulate up. The spark will come and go rapidly, however don't ignore it! One little spark now can begin one deadly fire later.

Your service panel is hot = emergency situation

That might be a tough one to catch, because most people do not engage with their service panels quite on a daily basis. However if you do happen to observe heat emanating from your service panel it's important to call us right now. Again, that's is a fire waiting to happen.

Think it or not, this one generally isn't a hard fix. It's a sign of a loose wire or a bad breaker. Sometimes it's an indication of a far more severe problem. A specialist needs to make that examination.

Your electrical box is singing to you = emergency situation

Buzzing sounds from the breaker box are another sign of a loose wire or a bad breaker that can trigger a fire. To some individuals, that might sound more like a humming sound.

Despite how you perceive the noise, it is typically a sign of a breaker that's declining to trip. Breakers are expected to trip when the circuit gets too hot. If the breaker is stopping working to do its job, then your electrical wiring is dealing with heat and power loads it was never meant to manage. Shut down all power and call us immediately.

The breakers keep tripping = emergency

This means one of 3 things: your electrical system is getting overloaded, you have got a short circuit, or you have got a ground fault. Several components of your electrical system may have failed to produce those problems.

The first is fairly safe, however it's a hint your system needs an upgrade. That is specifically real in older homes, which aren't indicated to run almost as lots of electronics as we now depend on every day. The second two are incredibly unsafe, and need attention immediately.
